KEY MESSAGES
Issued at 949 PM CST Tue Feb 3 2026
- Breezy northerly winds behind a cold front today with some wind gusts approaching 30-35 mph. 10% chance or less for gusts 40-45 mph.
- Thursday through the coming weekend, temperatures will climb to well above average for early February.
SHORT TERM
(This afternoon through Thursday night) Issued at 1143 AM CST Wed Feb 4 2026
Surface winds will decrease to less than 10 mph by sunset while slowly veer to the west by midnight in response to surface troughing to the north. Wind speeds will gradually increase shortly before sunrise through late Thursday morning to around 15 mph out of the north as a weak front moves through the region. This front will be more of a wind shift than an actual front as CAA will be virtually non-existent. Winds will once again begin to subside by late Thursday afternoon into the evening as the surface pressure gradient relaxes. Temperatures will be noticeably warmer Thursday, 10- 15 degrees over today's highs. Morning lows will be in the mid to upper 20s across most of the region.
LONG TERM
(Friday through next Tuesday) Issued at 1143 AM CST Wed Feb 4 2026
Mostly quiet weather is expected Friday through the weekend as upper ridging builds over the Great Plains. Models continue to bring an upper closed across Baja late Saturday and into northern Mexico by Sunday. The path of this upper low continues to track further south as it moves closer to the FA and transitions to an open wave as it moves across Texas early next week. The current path would suggest mostly dry conditions though a rouge shower or two may be possible. Precip chances will be highest across our southeastern zones Monday and Tuesday, and that will likely dry out as well as we get approach the weekend. Afternoon highs will average in the upper 60s/70s each day with morning lows averaging in the mid 30s/40s.
AVIATION
(18Z TAFS) Issued at 1143 AM CST Wed Feb 4 2026
